Hear from our Students

“Mitchell Hamline has prepared me to be a lawyer through the practical experience I received from the clinics. I had the opportunity to be a part of four different cases and even had three clients of my own.” – Dylan Larson ’23, a full-time on campus student

“Success is a non-linear journey. Be perseverant and believe in yourself.” – Fee Moua ’22, a first-generation college graduate.

“A lot of people might think that going to law school means you have to give up everything – that you have to give up your social life, your family time, and your job. That’s not the case at Mitchell Hamline.”
Ameena Langford, business owner, mother, grandmother and blended-learning student.
